Ring (1) of radiator shroud
slacken, attach.
Collar nut (2)
unscrew, screw on, tightening torque 70 Nm.
Use hexagon socket bit (8 mm) with reversible ratchet to hold shaft (3).
Poly V-belt pulley (4) with spacer disc (5)

The Poly V-belt pulley (4) and the fan wheel (7) are subjected to very different stresses. The level of these stresses depends primarily on the driving
conditions. For this reason, when reconditioning generators on vehicles which have driven more than 100,000 km, at the same time also replace the poly
V-belt pulley (4) and the fan wheel (7).
